League of Legends

League of legends is a RPG game. The game focuses mainly on combat between two teams of five players each competing to capture the other teams turrets first. 

The main aspects of the game that I like is the graphics and sound within the battle. The graphics appear very clear, considering the fast pace of the game. The sound effects are very sharp and realistic. My favorite champions to play are Garen, Vi and Jax.

  

Aspects of the game I don't like are; some champions that you can play as are squishy, meaning if your not careful they will die easily due to low health and mana. Another thing about the game that I'm not fond on is sometimes it automatically matches you with people who are a higher level than you, leaving the game much harder to play.

The main aim of the game is to work as a team to capture the turrets in your lane, one player goes to the top lane, one goes in the middle, two sit at the bottom and the final player patrols the jungles which join the lanes together. You can't pass the turrets and go further without destroying them. Once you've destroyed the two turrets in your lane, you move into the enemy base, which has a further three turrets, which when destroyed allow you to attack the three inhibators. Then you move onto a further two turrets, once all of these are done you can attack the spawning pool. The spawning pool spawns minions which help your team attack the enemy team minions and turrets. Once the spawning pool has been destroyed the game ends. The team who destroy the enemy spawning pool first wins the game.
 

This is the map that helps you see where everything is during a normal game.

 

There are various other game modes of League, such as dominion. Dominion is similar to the normal games, but with a slightly different aim. Instead of destroying turrets there are five different turrets to capture. Each kill, assist or capture gives you points, which is deducted off of the other teams health, each team start with 500. As soon as one of the teams health runs out the other team then wins the game.
